Chemical Structure

Ethyl 5-fluoro-2-nitrobenzoate CAS 364-51-2 chemical structure

Description

Ethyl 5-fluoro-2-nitrobenzoate (CAS 364-51-2), molecular formula C9H8FNO4 and molecular weight 213.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C9H8FNO4, Ethyl 5-fluoro-2-nitrobenzoate contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 213.16 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures Ethyl 5-fluoro-2-nitrobenzoate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
